Sake – a world of its own.

JAPANESE PREMIUM SAKE –
neither rice schnapps
nor rice wine.

Sometimes fruity and fresh, sometimes elegantly dry, sometimes deeply umami. Surprisingly versatile – and a great match for almost anything.

RISING SAKE brings Japan’s national drink into glasses across Germany – through tastings, food pairings and consulting for gastronomy.
